Constructive Interaction in a Learning Environment: An Emerging Theoretical Model and New Notion for SDLR
Journal Title: International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
How one being readied for learning? Self-Directed Learning (SDL) has been equated to Student-Centred Learning (SCL) in its implementation, despite it being defined as “Learning with or without the help of others in achieving the learning goals”. A mix-method was conducted to understand the readiness for SDL. Statistics showed that being readied for SDL was independent of learning styles and teaching styles. One could be readied for SDL in any learning environment. Classroom observations showed that constructive interactions contributed to the readiness for SDL by engaging students and teachers to the lessons. Hence, an emerging theoretical model with a new notion for SDLR is proposed.
